About Me

I am happily married to the most wonderful man I ever took a chance on. I enjoy time spent in the kitchen - it relaxes me.
As someone pointed out to me, the kitchen is often the heart of the home. It is in ours.

Mr. & Mrs. Potts!

Established November 8, 2008

This started as a way to chronicle my love of all things food - grocery shopping, cooking stores, recipes, baking, cooking and experimenting.

I found that however much I love food, there are other things that occupy my time/thoughts. Some serious - God, family, health, love and more. Other thoughts are definitely not serious - fashion, cosmetics, moisturizers, conditioner and perhaps even my search for the perfect pair of running shoes.

Why share all this with "strangers"? My husband, Mr. Potts, tells me I am a chatty Cathy something akin to a wind up doll where you pull the string and the chatting starts. He appreciates the fact that I choose to spare him (sometimes) all these random thoughts. Yet, he also benefits from my musings on food and my experiments in our kitchen.

Showing you my life

Kelly, from Kelly's Korner is again hosting Show Us Your Life - Wedding Party & Flowers/Ceremony. I really loved my flowers and the bridesmaid dresses, as well as the tuxes the guys wore, so I have to participate this time too!

Mr. Potts and I were married November 8, 2008. It was such a wonderful day because we were surrounded by friends and family. I loved my flowers - I adore fall & all the colors associated with it. I love the nip in the air and the way cheeks get rosy after a bit of time spent outside.

All of my beautiful ladies and their bouquets. Somehow at the end of the night both Mr. Potts' niece and my niece ended up with a bouquet.The flower girls and me. They both wore an ivory dress with a chocolate sash.One of our favorite pictures. We have a print of the sign in the background. We're going to frame this picture and hang it below that one.Mr. Potts and his Best Man - the vests & ties of the groomsmen were a deep chocolate with cocoa stripes. The vest was deep chocolate. They looked so handsome!A good shot of my hair clip. I loved it! Could you tell my niece didn't want to leave? She was having too much fun dancing!I hope you've enjoyed my trip down wedding memory lane!

Thanks for popping in to say hello and say such nice things about my wedding! We must be neighbors! I love that photo of your wedding party in front of the Charlotte signs uptown! Love that little spot.
